Microservices Architecture in Python

Design Python microservices with FastAPI, service discovery, message queues with RabbitMQ/Kafka, circuit breakers, and distributed tracing.

Part 1: Introduction to Microservices Architecture in Python

Design Python microservices with FastAPI, service discovery, message queues with RabbitMQ/Kafka, circuit breakers, and distributed tracing.

This lesson uses Python 3.13 features and follows best practices for development in Visual Studio 2026 with Copilot assistance.

Part 2: Core Concepts & Code Examples

# Microservices Architecture in Python — Python 3.13 Example
from typing import Any

def main() -> None:
    """Entry point demonstrating lesson 38 concepts."""
    print(f"Lesson 38: Microservices Architecture in Python")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Part 3: Best Practices & Patterns

Apply the patterns from this lesson consistently across your projects. Visual Studio 2026's Python IntelliSense, type checking integration, and GitHub Copilot will guide you toward idiomatic, production-ready Python 3.13 code.

Use type hints for all function signatures
Write docstrings with Args/Returns sections
Run ruff for linting, mypy for type checking
Test every function with at least one pytest test

Part 4: Next Steps

Practice these concepts hands-on, then continue to Lesson 39. Return to Python Tutorial Home to see the full curriculum, or visit VisualStudioTutor.com for Visual Studio 2026 guides.
